The countdown to Black Friday is officially on, and Amazon is giving shoppers a head start on the savings. You don't have to wait for the big event to score major deals, with early markdowns already rolling in on best-sellers from top brands like YETI, Apple, ASICS, Ring, Ninja and more.

One of my personal favorite sales of the weekend is on Amazon devices, which are currently up to 60% off. You can shop Blink security cameras, Ring Video Doorbells and Fire TV Sticks from $16. For instance, this Blink Mini 2K+ is bundled with the Blink Wired Doorbell 2K+ for just $31.

If you're already in the holiday spirit, now's a great time to get started on the festivities. LEGO Advent calendars featuring favorites like Star Wars, Marvel, Disney and more are on sale for as little as $26. And if a new Christmas tree is on your holiday shopping list, I recommend snagging this 7.5-foot Best Choice Products tree for just $99.

If you're ready to indulge in a little retail therapy this weekend, keep scrolling to find the rest of my favorite Amazon deals worth shopping before Black Friday.
